Windows vista problems install keyboard and mouse

I try to install windows vista ultimate on a new amd system I've built recently. The windows vista screen Boot starts well, but I can't go further with the installation because the keyboard and the mouse do not work.

To solve the problem, I booted up with a Linux distribution and I can use the keyboard and mouse and everything works fine. Initially, I bought vista using boot camp on my Mac and the keyboard and mouse work well with vista on this configuration.
I want to upgrade to windows 8 thereafter, but I might need to buy the whole program, rather than the update if I can't do vista works. I don't want to spend money if I can't because I'm broke. Any suggestions?

Parameters of the BIOS of some computers have a setting "Enable USB Legacy" to allow the keyboard to work without Windows running.

If you have PS/2 ports buy an adapter or a PS/2 keyboard. Most USB keyboards can be connected to a PS/2 port using a USB to PS/2 adapter.

    Hello

    ·        What is the specific name of the laptop?

    Check if an error code or error message is listed in the Device Manager.

    a. Click Start, type devmgmt.msc and press to enter.

    b. expand the device and double click on the sub element.

    Here is the link to the HP website to download the drivers for the keyboard and mouse, look for the specific model number and download the drivers for the same thing: http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/ProductList.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&taskId=135&prodSeriesId=1842187&prodTypeId=321957

    You can uninstall the drivers for the keyboard and the touchpad and install the drivers from the link above or let the update of Windows install the drivers for the device:

    a. Click Start, type devmgmt.msc and press to enter.

    b. expand the device and right click on the sub element and click on uninstall.

    Some people said you had a problem with any of the mobile world?
    .. .hmm statement very interesting but according to her simple nonsense.

    First of all every part is covered by the warranty s notebook. Standard warranty covers material for the first month issues 12. Of course, it is possible to extend this warranty

    In case the material part will begin a malfunction within this period, the part will be replaced in the warranty conditions. Otherwise if your warranty isn't valid more and you will pay for the replacement of equipment.

    In my opinion, the material must be checked properly to get information what part is malfunctioning.
    Maybe it s just a defect of operation of the keyboard or in the worst case, the motherboard
    It is difficult to say what's wrong so far in the part was checked.

    In case the external keyboard still works correctly, the card mother isn t touched and the new keyboard should solve the problem.

    Can someone help me please? I reinstalled my Vista and my microphone does not work. When I try to plug in my headphones, they are also dead. Nobody knows what kind of drivers can be responsible for this?

    And how you try reinstalling Vista? Using the recovery image (factory settings) or you try to install the clean version of Vista?

    Sorry, but I don't see any sense why you are doing this. Your laptop comes with Vista. Is there a particular reason to achieve?

  • No response from the keyboard and mouse to the Windows logon.

    Hello, I had this problem a while but a restore fixed it, and of course it happened recently that I want to challenge results.
    Basically, my mouse and my keyboard do not respond before Windows logon.
    Opening height of session does not either.
    The keyboard and mouse seem to work if I go into the conservation program (ESC key at startup and F11).

    I'm running Windows 7 on an HPG60 laptop 64-bit with 3 GB of RAM.
    Processor: Intel (r) Celeron (r) CPU
    900 to 2.20 GHz 2.19 Ghz

    My mouse is actually a touchpad - Synaptics PS/2 Port TouchPad.
    My keyboard is attached to laptop Standard 101/102 - key or Microsoft Natural Keyboard PS/2 with HP QLB.
        
    I need help as SOON as possible so that I can get back to work.

    -Albert

    This is equivalent to the old rule of iron of computing: If you have important files on your PC, then you need to back up an external medium regularly. Problem request not do or wait until you have a major problem. Fortunately, Windows 7 gives you a loop hole. Here's how it works:
    1. get a disk external 2.5 "in a USB case.
    2. connect it to the PC.
    3. set your BIOS so that it uses the DVD drive as its primary boot device.
    4. start the computer with the Windows 7 repair CD or with your Windows 7 installation DVD.
    5. press a button if you are prompted to start from the DVD.
    6. When prompted, select "Safe Mode Command Prompt".
    7. connect as administrator if you are prompted.
    8. Select repair when prompted.
    9. Select command prompt.
    10. save your files or folders on the external USB drive (or a flash drive).
    If you are not familiar with the commands of copy in the command line environment, ask a friend gifted in computer science to help you.

    After solving the problem of keyboard and mouse, do you a favor and use the USB disk as backup media. On a regular basis.

  • HP SlimDesktop 450-a114: keyboard and mouse only work in safe mode

    When that I starts normally, the keyboard and the mouse do not work and I can not connect.

    If I boot in safe mode, the mouse and keyboard and I can open a session.

    In safe mode, when I go into Device Manager, the device of keyboards is "HID Keyboard Device" and the mouse device is "mouse HID-compliant".  What should I do?

    Thank you

    Mike

    If it works in Mode safe is probably a driver issue because Safe Mode doesn't load any third-party drivers.

    I suggest that you go into Device Manager"and uninstall the keyboard and the mouse. To restart Windows will detect the keyboard and mouse and reinstall the drivers, I hope as fixing the problem.

    * You didn't say what version of Windows you use, so I could not be more specific on how to access the Device Manager.

    If whole words are be spelled correctly, it sounds like you were either hacked or has the computer infected with a malware or a virus.

    (1) you have an anti-virus application running? If so, run a deep scan. If this is not the case, download antivirus software. I use Avast free and have been used successfully for years.

    (2) run Anti-Malware software Malwarebytes', once again, a thorough analysis. First quarantine, then remove all the threats that it finds.

    (3) run the SUPERAntiSpyware software. He'll probably find thousands of tracking cookies. These you can safely remove, but are probably not the cause of your problem. Remove all the problems it finds.

    Once you have downloaded (downloads.cnet.com or softpedia.com are good places to use), installed and updated these applications, disconnect your computer from the network (router) to perform the actual analysis.

    These apps will take a lot of time, literally hours and hours to run, so plan to run all night with your laptop is plugged into a power outlet. Test your computer once these applications have completed their work and see what you get.

    Keep us in the loop.

  • keyboard and mouse not working not properly after installing Windows 8.1

    I was forced to upgrade my computer to Windows 8.1. My keyboard worked fine until the system is restarted. Numbers on the keyboard stopped typing and letters were capitalized when the caps lock was turned off and the numbers at the top will only type the symbol above the numbers.

    I looked at this problem and it seems that I have to enter in the settings of the UEFI and disable the Intel XHCI mode. When I enter the settings of UEFI, I can't make any selection in the start menu. My keyboard and mouse stop working.

    Any suggestions?

    Thanks for posting a reply. Fortunately, I didn't have to try your solution because the computer solve itself.

  • How to install a wireless keyboard and mouse in Windows 7

    I installed windows 7 on my neighbor's computer.  I do not have the keyboard and the mouse at the time so I used one of my own (not wireless).  Now, I have a keyboard and mouse, but can not understand how to operate.  The computer is a gateway FX400 XL.  I went to the front door and downloaded a driver entered Gateway 400 series for Windows 7 32-bit system.  I then ran the installation for this driver who really seemed to be for Windows XP.  I shut down the computer, unplugged my mouse and keyboard, and return the computer.  I have a cursor on the screen but it won't move and the keyboard does not work.  I then plugged my keyboard and mouse again and still works.  Any ideas as to what I should try next?

    Hello Willie Wonka 2,.

    Mouse and keyboard wirelesss should have with its own installation disc you need to first install. You should also have a "receiver" which the mouse and the keyboard must be synchronized with to make them work properly. If you look at the bottom of the mouse and keyboard, you should see a button 'tiny' with the words 'connect' next to them. You must move the mouse close the "receiver" and press the button connect the mouse with a blunt object (pencil will usually do). All the lights of the "receiver" will start to Flash when the mouse connects. When they stop flashing the connection generally were filed. You will need to do the same thing with the keyboard.

    Regarding the drivers, you should check the site of manufacturers of keyboard and mouse for the updates.

    This forum post is my own opinion and does not necessarily reflect the opinion or the opinion of Microsoft, its employees or other MVPS.
